Marketing: Indooroopilly State High School
Each and every one of our students has the ability to learn and the right to do so in the best environment possible. Only in safe, mutually supportive school can this be achieved. Classroom activities foster healthy relationship between teacher and student to inspire mutual respect and learning. Creating self-governing environment enriches the learning experience beyond the curriculum.
The learning experience should go beyond the classroom into later life. We believe the evolution of our learning environment should always consider the global and future prospects of our students. Perhaps most of all we believe enjoyment and success are the key motivators to learning, and persistence and resilience are critical attributes. Rights and responsibilities carry equal weight, where the freedom to make choices and take responsibility for learning develops maturity and the desire to succeed. We welcome you as partner in this important enterprise.
Marketing: Lensworth Real Estate
Kylie, 30, a public relations officer with Caloundra City Council and Adam, 30, a salesman at Dwyer’s Retravision in Caloundra, looked at Bellvista soon after getting married on March 24 last year. After selecting land at Bellvista they had to put plans on hold until building their own home was a more financially viable option.
Later, after taking part in a Lensworth Kawana Waters familiarisation tour with Caloundra City councillors and key staff, Kylie was impressed with what she saw at other Lensworth Kawana Waters display villages at Kawana Island and Creekside. “I saw the Bondi Beach Cottage and the Gabriel Poole designed Lensworth beach cottage which showed how well smaller blocks can work. Then I saw a couple of Glenwood Homes I liked at Creekside. “I went back with Adam and we found a Glenwood design we liked for a smaller block and were delighted to find there was a suitable 487m2 block with a 15 metre frontage.
“It all fell into place so smoothly. We were eligible for the first home owners grant and we’ve had a lot of support from the builder,’’ said Kylie. The young couple, who already love Caloundra’s excellent amenities and beaches, are looking forward to joining the Bellvista community where they already have friends, family and workmates living nearby. “We really like the area, it’s a nice community and neighbourhood and the lake area will be really nice for walks, riding bikes and having barbecues. After renting for years, it will be nice to have our own place,” she said.

Big Brother Eviction Profile: Dino
The berating burrito gets bootedHe’s competitive, self assured, hilarious, the oblivious point on a tottering love triangle and an unabashed straight talker. Dino may have offended as many hearts as he won over, but he’ll leave a Balkan sized hole in the house now he’s gone.
Known affectionately as “The Bosnian Burrito” by the other HMs, one thing is for sure: This dish was low on cheese and high on verbal salsa. Always popular with the boys and sometimes misunderstood by the girls, Dino became almost as famous for his competitive nature as his dry, sometimes twisted, sense of humour.
While his psych profile, described him as “laid back and private,” within the first week Dino was rubbing against some of the HMs the wrong way. An angry tirade from 2nd week evictee Elise had his mother rallying to his defence. The female HMs weren’t helping either, labeling his farmyard games antics as more bullish than chicken-like.
While a rift may have broken out between Dino and the girls, he continued to form a strong relationship with Anna, Michael and John. While this group may have dwindled by Dino’s last week in the house, they were sure to stand up for him when the going got bitchy.
Dino’s close relationship with Michael paid off, with the insider’s three point deduction saving him from a possible eviction in week four. Their friendship wasn’t always one of mutual support however, with Dino making several shrewd guesses about the existence of an insider before many of the HMs had a clue.
At the end of the day, Dino was laid back to the core. So Michael’s revelation as the insider was treated with a grain of salt, even though Dino had been privy to as almost as many Reuben stories as David. It was only Michael’s parting shot on the toothbrush saga that revealed a new side to Dino: the bitchy one.
Usually with either Jamie or John in tow, Dino’s rants have envied Rob’s for their mix of insightfulness, humour and venom. While staying ever true to his mates Jamie and John, Dino became one of the few in the house to ever question the previously inscrutable characters of Katie and David.
Of course Dino’s manner might have been eased somewhat by his good looks, a factor that didn’t escape David’s attention, nor the gaze of a stunning blonde intruder by the name of Danielle. Before long a party pash that started as a dare was blossoming into one of the house’s most riveting relationships.
The problem was, Dino is by nature a private person, concentrating heavily on his own time in the house. This apparent lack of attention soon had Danielle looking for another sympathetic ear. So who better than Dino’s best mate John? The first love triangle of the year had been formed: a tale that would keep us glued to the screen, Danielle confused, John guilty, the rest of the HMs frustrated and poor Dino completely oblivious.
Is there a future for Dinielle outside the house? Will he make amends with Michael? Or Elise? No matter the outcome, this Bosnian Burrito has kept us wrapt.
DVD Review: Iron Maiden - Death on the Road Live Concert
Iron Maiden are like an eighties Ford. They have twice the power they need, have dated faster than milk in the sun and sell far more out of loyalty than innovation. But damned if they aren’t dependable. 20 years on from their first album there isn’t a bald pate atop their 6 craggy domes, Bruce Dickenson’s air raid siren voice still reaches all the same notes and Steve Harris still hasn’t tired of writing the same song over and over. Even after 18 albums. Coming on the heels of their 2003 “Dance of Death” album, Maiden slayed Interview: J.D. Samson of Le Tigre
The prospect of interviewing JD from Le Tigre was actually a daunting one. More than just the band’s keyboard player and sometime lyricist, she is an outspoken gay rights advocate and figurehead, respected DJ and performance artist and even a calendar star. But despite this wealth of activity to mine questions from, its hard to get away from one question. The moustache. What is it with the moustache? Obviously such a question is out of the question- it could be really offensive. But now I’m worried about avoiding the question so much I’m worried it will just slip out. Worriedly I flick open a few shots from her 2003 calendar shoot and there it is in big gothic black letters. Right across her chest. The word “Moustache”. There is no need to ask now. The moustache is cool.Speaking of cool, JD seems amused by the bio’s description of her as one of “New York’s hottest underground DJs”. “You know what? I guess fun people come to my parties and that’s what makes it fun. I wouldn’t say I’m one of those crazy beat mixers or something. I’ve been asked to DJ since I joined Le Tigre and I just started having parties and having a good time with people. I think its just cool to create a space for people to have fun with other people in the community rather than having some sort of top notch superstar DJ” JD is in the country for the blink of an eye to lift up the final night of Brisbane’s annual Queer film festival, right after a screening of John Water’s latest piece of sleaze “A Dirty Shame”. She’s excited about the film and the visit for sure, but as an avid camper would probably like to take the visit a little slower.
“I put out a calendar in 2003 and everyone had been asking me to do another one. So we came up with the idea to go in search of a Lesbian Utopia. For most of us, it has been such a hard time in the gay and lesbian community to actually
out of their own little scene. And I was just thinking, is it because we all live in the city? Is it because we need to get out of the city?”
So JD, photographer Cass Bird and two other performance artists packed themselves in an RV and went on a tour of rural United States, shooting location on the way.
“I didn’t know what was gonna happen. I just wanted to be anonymous for a while, to just go into these experiences and just be kind of an anthropologist. Especially in the gay lesbian community and someone who has been in the magazines, it can be hard to get away from it all.”
Rather predictably, the group found Utopia “inside the RV with us”, but so far as finding spaces for the gay and lesbian community outside of the cities, JD judges the trip a success. “Although some of them just thought we were men” she adds.
This means adding to her previous success with “Dykes Can Dance”, a guerilla style dance group she formed with a friend to protest New York’s antiquated cabaret laws. Think Fatboy Slim’s “Praise You” video with Lesbians (and a little more artistry).
. “In New York there used to be a law that you couldn’t dance in clubs that didn’t have a cabaret licence. You could have music on but nobody could dance. There were signs saying no dancing all over and they mostly were policing that sort of thing in lesbian bars -mostly because they were wanting to move them out of where they were.”
JD was able to abandon that project after the law was finally changed, but DJing and Le Tigre aren’t her only musical ventures.
“I’ve had to cut short my trip to Australia because I’m going to be performing with Peaches playing keys and sequencers and we need to rehearse. She’s gonna be kind of a live band this time. I think we’re already scheduled to do the next Big Day Out.” A lot of Australia got their first taste of Le Tigre from the Big Day Out. The experience is part of why JD is so keen to come back.
“It was out of control. We had a really good time and made friends, and probably managed to push the boundaries of our ‘scene’. The Gold Coast was amazing, Sydney was great, individual shows were really fun. Actually a really big part of it was to see how many people came out to those shows.”
A whole bunch of those people will obviously be keen to hear what JD can bring to the mixing desks.
I always play ESG, Michael Jackson, Missy Elliot, a lot of Hip Hop. Lately I’m always playing this hip hop remix that Peaches did for called ‘stilettos’. And….” A small sigh comes down the line.
“Madonna”.
She sounds almost ashamed.
